Rosa Rankin-Gee’s latest novel is a beautiful book: thought-provoking, eerily prescient and hailed by GQ as a triumph. Set in a near-future Margate, the British seaside town where disenfranchisement is surging and narrated by Chance, who comes of age at the time of extraordinary social change, Rankin-Gee demonstrates, with cinematic pace and deep humanity, the enduring power of love and hope in a world spinning out of control.
